in order to apply the law of cosines to find the length of the side of a triangle, is it enough to know which of the following?


A. The area of a triangle

B. The lengths of two of the triangle's sides and the measure of the angle between them

C. At least two of the angles of the triangle and the length of one of its sides

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B. The lengths of two of the triangle's sides and the measure of the angle between them

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual formulation of the law of cosines is something like this:

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

where 'c' is the side opposite angle C, and 'a' and 'b' are the other two sides. That is, to use this formula directly, one needs two side lengths and the measure of the included angle.

_____

Additional comment

One can use the law of cosines to solve a triangle when any two sides and one angle are known. The use of the formula will give a quadratic in the unknown side length, if it is not the side opposite the known angle. As with the law of sines, if the angle is opposite the shorter of the two given sides, there may be two solutions for the length of the third side.

find x and y on triangle
Also the degree is 30 and the other thing is 7sqrt3​

Answers

Answer:

y =7

x =14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use trig functions

tan 30 = opp /adj

tan 30 = y/ 7 sqrt(3)

7 sqrt(3)  tan 30 = y

7 sqrt(3) * 1/ sqrt(3) =t

7 =y

sin 30 = opp/ hyp

sin 30 = 7/x

x sin 30 =7

x = 7/ sin 30

x = 7 / 1/2

x = 14

A building 51 feet tall casts a shadow 48 feet long. Simultaneously, a nearby statue casts a shadow of 16 feet. How tall is the statue? Choose an answer

Answers

Answer: 17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

51/48 = x/16

(51)(16)/48

The statute is 17 feet tall.

What are the similar triangles?

Similar triangles are the triangles that have the same shape, but different sizes. The corresponding angles are congruent and the sides are in proportion.

What is the ratio of any two corresponding sides of similar triangles?

The ratio of any corresponding sides in two equiangular triangles is always the same.

Let's visualize the situation according to the given question.

AB is the building ,whose height is 51f

BC is the shadow of the building AB, whose length is 48ft.

QR is the shadow of the tower statue, whose length is 16feet.

Let the height of the statue PR be h feet.

In triangle ACB and triangle PRQ

∠ACB = ∠PRQ = 90 degrees  

( the objects and shadows are perpendicular to each other)

∠BAC = ∠QPR

( sunray falls on the pole and tower at the same angle, at the same time )

ΔACB similar to ΔPRQ   ( AA criterion)

Therefore, the ratio of any two corresponding sides in equiangular triangles is always same.

⇒ AC/CB = PR/RQ

⇒[tex]\frac{51}{48} =\frac{h}{16}[/tex]

⇒ h = [tex]\frac{(51)(16)}{48}[/tex]

⇒ h = 17 feet.

Hence, the statute is 17 feet tall.

A football team has a probability of 0.76 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference. If the games are independent, what is the probability the team wins all its conference games

Answers

Answer:

0.33362176

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcomes to the number of total outcomes.

Given that a football team has a probability of 0.76 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference, the probability that the team wins all its conference games

= 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76

= 0.33362176

This is the probability that the teams wins the 4 matches played against the other teams in the conference.

(b) In a formula, z varies inversely as P. If Z is 200 when P is 4, find z when P is 10.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 18

(b) 80

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) let y=kx

so, 24=16k

or, k=24/16 or, k=3/2

now, putting x=12

y=kx

or, y=(3/2)×12

or, y=3×12/2

or, y=36/2

or, y=18

(b) let P=k/z

so, 4=k/200

or, k=800

when P = 10

P=k/z

or, 10=800/z

or, z=800/10

or, z=80

~Simplify left side

7x + 7 + 2 = 5x + 15

~Combine like terms

7x + 9 = 5x + 15

~Subtract 9 to both sides

7x = 5x + 6

~Subtract 5x to both sides

2x = 6

~Divide 2 to both sides

x = 3

2065 Q.No. 2 a A firm produced 100 calculator sets during its first year. The total number of calculator sets produced at the end of five years is 4,500. Assume that the production increases uniformly each year. Estimate the increase in production each year. [3] Ans: 400 ​

Answers

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the firm produces 100 sets its first year. This means that our equation starts at 100. Next, the total number of calculator sets in 5 years is 4500. With y₁ representing the amount of calculator sets produced during year 1, y₂ representing the amount of sets during year 2, and so on, we can say that

y₁+y₂+y₃+y₄+y₅ = 4500

100 + y₂+y₃+y₄+y₅ = 4500

Next, we are given that the production increases uniformly by an amount each year. Representing that amount as a, we can say that

y₁+a = y₂

y₂+a = y₃

y₁+a+a = y₃

y₁+ 2 * a = y₃

and so on, so we have

100 + y₂+y₃+y₄+y₅ = 4500

100 + (100+a) + (100+2a) + (100+3a) + (100+4a) = 4500

500 + 10a = 4500

subtract 500 from both sides to isolate the a and its coefficient

4000 = 10a

divide both sides by 15 to isolate a

a = 400

An empty freight train traveled 60 miles from an auto assembly plant to an oil refinery. There, its tank cars were filled with petroleum products, and it returned on the same route to the plant. The total travel time for the train was 4 1 2 hours. If the train traveled 20 mph slower with the tank cars full, how fast did the train travel in each direction

Answers

Answer:

On the way out the train traveled at about 40 mph, while on the return it did so at 20 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since an empty freight train traveled 60 miles from an auto assembly plant to an oil refinery, and there, its tank cars were filled with petroleum products, and it returned on the same route to the plant, and the total travel time for the train was 4.5 hours, if the train traveled 20 mph slower with the tank cars full, to determine how fast did the train travel in each direction the following calculation must be performed:

60/20 = 3

60/40 = 1.5

60/20 = 3

3 + 1.5 = 4.5

Therefore, on the way out the train traveled at about 40 mph, while on the return it did so at 20 mph.
